The Sadness

In your eyes I See the sadness

Wishing to wipe away your tears

Heartache etched within your soul

Leaving you with all of your fears

My gaze burning desperately

Trying to see within

I struggle to embrace your broken heart

Release the compassion that struggles to be free again

Reaching out to hold you

Close to my heart you do lay

I will always be here to catch you

Never allowing you to wither away

I see within your crying eyes

So desperate to belong

Envious of the future

As the past hinders you from which you long
